0:38Now PlayingBrooklyn State Sen. Kevin Parker has been accused of raping a woman who was working with him to coordinate relief efforts for Haiti nearly 20 years ago, according to a new lawsuit.
The lawsuit was filed in Brooklyn Supreme Court on Friday by Olga Jean-Baptiste, who alleges the then-first-term state legislator raped her at her apartment in 2004 after discussing her humanitarian visit to the Caribbean island, which had just been ravaged by catastrophic flooding.
Jean-Baptiste, who was 31 at the time, had worked with Parker to gather and deliver necessities to Haiti ahead of her trip. When she returned to the US, Parker had asked if he could visit her apartment to pick up some photos and discuss her work there, according to the suit.
The two sat at Jean-Baptiste’s living room table where they chatted for some time. After Jean-Baptiste gave Parker the photographs, she stood up to say goodbye but the senator suddenly grabbed her by the wrists, she claims in the court doc.
